While I spent the last week with Bob Meiser Rod, called Fred Evans Special!
Yea that Fred Evans, It was a pleasure to cast it 530 – 580 grains.
It handled the wind just right, I ended up just casting it not really fishing, and I started casting for distance bad sign to much fun casting it.

9' 5wt Sage DS and 9'6" 8wt Sage DS. I like them both but the 8wt is a struggle with a type 6.

Just an old GL3 9'5wt for the summer and a 9'6" 8wt St Croix for the winter. And maybe a GL2 7'6" 4wt and a Sage 9' 6wt throw in for other things. You never know what you are going to fish for until you get to where it is you are going. And these four rods cover all that I need along with several different lines.

Jim... I try to keep it simple. what
